The reform and opening up in the early 80s of the last century liberated people from their rotten minds, and when a lot of money was put in their hands, everyone understood the importance of material and wealth.

When the 1st Battalion of Regiment B and Sun Wangying were engaged in a 'dragon and tiger fight' on the construction site, their performance attracted the dissatisfaction of the temporary migrant workers of the construction company.

"Hey, soldiers, which of you is an official?" A 'contractor foreman' who came in an old van and brought a dozen migrant workers to the construction site of the first battalion of the B regiment, and he asked to see the battalion commander Guan Jianguo.

"Over there, I'll take you." The commander of a company has never seen this formation, he is also a member of the army after the turmoil, he has never been in contact with these 'nouveau riche' before joining the army, and when I see it today, it is really good, the person wearing a suit and combing his back is like 'Xu Wenqiang' and 'Ding Li' in "Shanghai Tang".

"Something to do with me?" After a few days, Guan Jianguo obviously lost a lot of weight, probably because he was too tired and didn't sleep well, and his skin also made the southern sun tanned.

"Something, come with me over there for a chat?"

"Okay."

"You all wait for me here, I'll go talk to Brother Bing." The foreman ordered his subordinates to stay put, and he followed Guan Jianguo to a place not far away.

"I still have to work."

"You're the head of the regiment?"

"No, I'm the battalion commander, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just want to discuss it with you." The foreman said, and took out a stack of "Great Unity" from the bag, which looked like it was almost a thousand pieces.

"You put it away first, you say, as long as I can do it. Specify to help you. ”

"Refreshing, so refreshing, smoking, you smoking." The foreman was not in a hurry to send money to Guan Jianguo, and he handed over a box of good local cigarettes "N cigarettes".

Guan Jianguo looked at the cigarette, which said "Special Offering", opened it and smoked one, and then returned the cigarette case to the contractor.

"You can carry it, I still have it." The foreman of the contractor seems to be very generous.

"I don't have any pockets, just smoke one." Guan Jianguo made a gesture to light the fire. He opened his shoulders again and asked the foreman to see if he had a pocket.

After lighting a cigarette for Guan Jianguo, the foreman said in a low voice, "Comrade of the People's Liberation Army, we rural people are suffering~."

Guan Jianguo himself is also a peasant, he knows that as a peasant, facing the loess with his back to the sky, life is not easy, otherwise he would not be able to come to be a soldier, "Yes." Our hometown is also the hardest for farmers, but now that we have planted greenhouses, our income has also increased. ”

The contractor listened very attentively to Guan Jianguo's narration of his hometown A city and countryside. Later, when Guan Jianguo finished speaking, he took over the conversation, "That's it, it's not easy for farmers to make a few dollars." That's what I'm here for. ”

"Is there anything I can do to help you?"

"Great, I'll tell you about our situation. We are in the suburbs of N City, now is not reform and opening up, I will take everyone out to do construction work to eat, just like what you are doing now, it is the work that I finally asked someone to get, I originally wanted everyone to earn a little more, but I didn't think about it, you came, I know that the People's Liberation Army has combat effectiveness, but the work is not done like this, you have finished eating in the library, you have finished the work in half a month, and let us eat the rest. "The contractor is here to persuade Guan Jianguo and them to do less.

"We've affected you?"

The foreman nodded, "We are the 'individual' listed in the construction company, 10 yuan per meter of work, we usually work five meters a day and rest, so that everyone can earn more, I came today to let you work slowly, can you help us?" ”

Guan Jianguo thought for a while, "You said you were their head, why should I believe you?" ”

"Hey, don't you look at it, over there, a few people I brought are from the same village as me," the foreman beckoned to his accomplices, and the other party responded, and they also beckoned to Guan Jianguo's side.

Guan Jianguo still couldn't understand it, this work was obviously arranged by the military department, and they didn't hear that there were other workers doing it.

"You still don't believe it, do you, look at this." The foreman took out his 'account book' from the briefcase, with the year, month and day written on it, as well as the names of the migrant workers, and the work of each person at the back, which was indeed what he said, most of the people worked 5 meters, and a few were 6 meters, or 7 meters.

"I believe you, but I can't do this alone, I want to go back and discuss it with my comrades."

"Okay, it's good to have a discussion, this money~, you better accept it first." The contractor once again took out the money and wanted to give it to Guan Jianguo.

"I have a salary, I don't lack money." Guan Jianguo strode back to the construction site, the contractor and his companions waved their hands, and then walked towards Sun Wangying opposite.

"Battalion commander, what are they for?" The battalion correspondent walked to Guan Jianguo's side.

"You go and call the instructor and the deputy battalion commander, I want to have a meeting."

"Yes."

When Guan Jianguo told No. 6 and Liu Dart what the contractor said and what he said, both of them expressed their opinions.

"I think we should slow down a little, I've been too tired for the past two days, many soldiers are too tired to get up, and some are still having a fever." Liu Dart was in charge of logistics and communication with Staff Officer An, and if he didn't give him any work in the past two days, he would have time to help the sick soldiers.

"The work can be less, but it can't be seen, don't usually work 15 meters a day, although it becomes 5 meters from time to time, it will make people find out and make people laugh." No. 6 was also very sympathetic to these migrant workers, and he agreed to reduce some work, but not too much.

"Since everyone agrees, how about changing it to ten meters a day tomorrow and eight meters the day after tomorrow?"

"Okay, it's all up to you."

"Listen to you."

The foreman of the contractor also 'bought' Sun Wang, Sun Wang agreed to his request, he accepted the benefit fee of 1,000 yuan, and it was collected in broad daylight, the foreman of the contractor and the people he brought were very happy, and drove away in the old van at a gallop.

The next day, the first battalion of the B regiment was reduced from 15 meters per person to 10 meters, everyone was very happy, this 10 meters is equivalent to about seventy percent of the original task, and the work is not too tired, and there is good wine and good food at night, they are looking forward to this work for a few more days, and enjoy it, and then rest intermittently.

The company commanders of the various companies under the first battalion naturally knew this guy, and because they were not in a hurry to work, they also arranged for an hour's nap, lying on the ridge altar full of solid soil, receiving the sun's rays, which was a deliberate feeling, and the coats of each person were covered on them, and when they looked at it from a distance, they were like rows of 'dead', sleeping on their positions.
